Looking for a change? The DynaMed editorial team is expanding and looking for medical writers!
DynaMed rated higher than other disease reference tools in new KLAS report on Clinical Decision Support.
Residents in all specialties are now expected to conduct scholarly effort during training. The DynaMed Editors are committed to contributing to the medical training of health care professionals by providing scholarly effort opportunities. Residents and students can co-review DynaMed topics with a supervising faculty member who has clinical practice experience.
Residency and allied health care training programs benefit two-fold:
- Residents and students have the opportunity to learn critical appraisal, evidence synthesis and other evidence-based processes
- Faculty can provide real-time, hands-on opportunities for residents and students in which to evaluate clinical learning, evidence evaluation and use of a clinical resource to improve patient care
Traditional research and publication efforts do not routinely adapt to residency program schedules. At DynaMed, we can tailor review opportunities to fit specific topics of interest and adjust deadlines to meet residency program schedules.
Additional benefits for Residency Programs participating in DynaMed peer review include:
- An additional educational opportunity for residents and students to learn critical appraisal, evidence synthesis and other evidence-based processes
- Real-time, hands-on opportunities for residents and students in which faculty can evaluate clinical learning, evidence evaluation and use of a clinical resource to improve patient care
- Activities tailored to residency program schedules
- ACGME Practice-Based learning and Improvement competency – method and documentation forms provided
- Program recognition: Residency program is listed in topic acknowledgements and on the Participating Reviewers & Contributors page
- Discounts on group subscriptions
- Continued complimentary DynaMed access provided to program graduates who continue to review their topic(s)
